International Banking Law and Regulation
About this book
International Banking Law and Regulation offers a critical exploration of the legal and regulatory frameworks that govern the global banking sector. Tracing the development of banking from its mediaeval origins to today's complex cross-border financial structures, this book examines how law and regulation underpin financial stability, guide corporate lending, and respond to technological and geopolitical change.
From foundational concepts such as money and payment systems to prudential supervision and corporate governance to the intricacies of syndicated lending, ESG finance, securitisation, and Islamic finance, each chapter considers the evolving interaction between legal norms, financial innovation, and regulatory oversight. Special attention is paid to cross-border lending, crisis management, anti-financial crime frameworks, and creditor hierarchies, with comparative insights from major jurisdictions, including the UK, EU, US, China, India, and Japan.
Written for students of law of banking and finance, early-career practitioners, and policymakers, this volume combines legal analysis with a practical, international outlook. It explains how banking law operates across jurisdictions, enabling financial institutions to manage risk, meet regulatory obligations, and support global economic activity.
In a rapidly evolving financial landscape, this book provides a timely and authoritative guide to the legal principles shaping the future of international banking.
